This is a pretty common style of build from what i've seen in the BWE's, but mine is just a variant so i'd quite like some feedback on it, as im not sure what is wrong with it, but there is definitely something!
btw - PLEASE dont comment about Illusionary Weaponry - i've considered it.

This character is basically designed to take out enemy spellcasters. Drop Diversion depending on spells being used, e.g. Maelstrom or powerful healing spell. as you run towards casters, drop as many of the interupt spells as possible to limit damage to your team and to get down their hp. when enemy is reached, hopefully another of your team will be in your FOV (field of view) so you can throw out a shatter hex and further drop enemy hp. Due to the fact this char doesnt use stances, pure strike always hits, so build up adrenaline quick and use it, following through with a final thrust. during the spell casting, keep energy and health up with ether feast and energy drain.

Jia,
The problems I see are the following:Lack of armor. While the mesmer armor (rogues set) isn't the worst around, if you are trying to be a warrior, while having mesmer as prim, you'll probably find yourself the target of the W/Mo's. They love nothing better than a caster on their playing field. Finding a usefull shield. With no attributes in tactics and being unable to put attributes in strength, you won't be able to find the shield which gives you the armor bonus you need. Final Thrust. FT needs 10 adren to work. Without Frenzy/Flurry or BS, it will take considerable time to built up the 10 adren. During this time, the caster has all possibility to run away from you (since you don't have any crippeling spells) or call in the help of a team mate (most likely the W/Mo, I mentioned earlier)
Having said this, I think you could at best drop FT for a hamstring (10 e) or savage slash (5 e).

sorry, 34-40 dmg per second that ignores armor with IW is hard not to comment on 
but i wont say anymore. Why pick warrior secondary instead of ranger if you did not want to use a shield? yeah ranger has energy problems without expertise but you have energy drain.. *shrug* just something to think about.
Actually for anticaster R/Me is my fav using disrupting shot and distracting shot.

cheers for the feedback! ill be editing this post in a bit with a thoroughly revised version - clanmates all threw ideas at me over IRC as well, thanks a lot for making me think properly about the armour 
Well, after thinking about it a lot, i decided that their really wasn't a lot of point going into melee,due to lack of strong armour/shield, so i figured "let's get rid of the warrior". Well, seeing as this character is primarily a disrupter, i am not going to be dealing out the most damage, and i reckoned i might as well find another way of slowing up warriors - i came up with Wards from the Elementalist skill line. To complement this, i altered some of the mesmer skills, focusing more on interrupts that also have a secondary effect. This is what i ended up with, which you may agree is quite different to the first build, but that's because i figured there were a few too many flaws
